Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 07/10/2026On Tuesdays evenings during term they play (the landlord let's them play) folk music in a nearby pub if you like that sort of thing 😊. 130
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 07/10/2026My daughter is doing a degree in violin making in Newark. I think they reconstructed some medieval instruments for the castle last year. Ah, here: newarkcastleandgardens.co.uk/news/2025/hi...newarkcastleandgardens.co.ukHighly skilled creators of musical instruments recreate rare medieval piecesStudents at Newark’s world-renowned School of Musical Instrument Crafts construct medieval musical instruments as part of their annual ‘Fiddle Race’ event. 140
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Nope. It degrades everyone involved. It diminishes us all to have someone killed in cold blood on our behalf. 040
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 24/09/2026I also used to think he was okay (although I don't see/hear much of his stuff) but at least twice now he's deliberately misrepresented (lied) about events or conversations I did see/hear. He can't get over his privilege. As to this, it's a little weird, or was he just being funny? 000
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Probably best not, but it is a good idea to take out a hip flask mid-interview and have a quick swig, making sure to conceal it by raising the other arm accordingly. 000
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 22/09/2026As a balding man, I second this suggestion when they use the other mirror to show you the back of your head. Why on earth do they think you want to see that? 010
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 20/09/2026So, you have to pat your head and rub your stomach at the same time? That's manhood? 080
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Oo, maybe! And analysis all about what went wrong for poor Arsenal. 020
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Everyone, including the American public, must now know who they themselves are in the cast of the remake of Nazi Germany. 010
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 18/09/2026Why didn't they just start a microbrewery and produce "Piddington Beer". Then everyone would have loved them. 011
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Well, I do happen to be a post expert. Here's one that I spotted despite the disguise. 180
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 17/09/2026I suppose, don't have votes like this particular one. I don't think it's necessary and will probably do more harm than good electorally. But, to be honest, I'm no expert and perhaps should have not commented. 200
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 17/09/2026I do, but hoping they can be sensible at the same time. Really hoping. 100
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Good. I'm tending to be too reactive at the moment... Must resist. Yes, I agree, Khan's behaviour was immature. 000
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 17/09/2026It is basically racist I'm sure, but why have a vote on it? Why not also have a vote on Hammas being racist? Why not concentrate on climate change and wealth inequality? 200
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Why can't we have a Green party that wants to get elected? 100
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Should Brighton worry that they have scored so many goals already? Is it a finite resource? 000
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 16/09/2026I'm kind of moderately fun at parties. I do regret my original comment about the bloke with the very noisy car. It was ridiculously noisy though. It might have been a McLaren F1. But inappropriate to keep it running in the pub car park. 010
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Although he probably wasn't aware of my soup, but we were definitely aware of the continual ear splitting noise that meant we could hear nothing else. 100
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Yes it is, but I'm not jealous. I almost feel sorry for the blighter. 100
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 15/09/2026There was one in a pub restaurant car park while we were eating outside. Deafening racket. He nearly received a bowl of mushroom soup on his poncy scalp. 100

Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 12/09/2026If they do, let's hope all they feel is shame and guilt for dealing in stolen goods. 020
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Looking for a writing app that doesn't have AI suggestions, for a train trip down to Sorrento during which I plan to write my magnum opus when not looking out of the window (opus minimus more like). 001
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 09/09/2026As a programmer I now have to use it to code. And it's turned coding from a craft into the mentorship of a prodigious genius who makes silly mistakes that you have to catch. But I refuse to use AI to write my emails! I'm sure AI is batting some back and forth without a human ever reading them. 031
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 07/09/2026True, but I'm sure Shea has some info concerning Waxy Lemon's coke-conspirators. 080
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Don't encourage him. Next he'll be demanding he reveal his sauces. 2101
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Unless we also have measures for counteracting climate change it will be like "adapting" to falling off a cliff. 010
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 05/09/2026How dare there be new thoughts since I had some once. 010
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 03/09/2026I'm sure he despises the people who vote for him too. 140
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Yeah, and you know what, I'm not going to vote for them! 010
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 03/09/2026They're not even hypocrites. They are just thin skinned greedy scumbags preying on the poor and gullible who they despise, and fawning to the rich they want to be for the power they want to have. They are rotting slices of ordure. 1285
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 30/08/2026What do you say? "TV" or "television", or "the box" maybe? I think you're right that it's an English (southern) thing. I've been saying "telly" since a being an East Sussex child in the 70s. Whereas, "TV" always felt too American. 000
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 27/08/2026All new cars look like dim aggressive cockroaches to me. I can't tell them apart and I wish they weren't there. I don't think we need a new Top Gear, thanks. 000
Duncan Muir @nacnudrium.bsky.social · 27/08/2026Just had flyer come for a band at the local village hall. Obviously AI, and it feels petty of me but for that reason I won't go to see them (although I probably wouldn't have anyway because I'm a miserable sod, but this seals it). 020
